Stunting is an obstacle in creating a golden generation to achieve the Golden Indonesia 2045. Stunting is a failure to grow in children under five due to chronic malnutrition characterized by a body shape that is too short for their age. This occurs due to various factors, with the biggest factor being poverty where the fulfillment of food needs is low, causing potential losses in the future. This study aims to determine how much potential economic loss is caused by stunting in Semarang Regency in 2024. This research method is descriptive research, using secondary data and the results of direct interviews from related agencies which are processed using calculations according to the Konig formula and correction factors by Horton. The results showed that the potential economic losses incurred up to the time of this study were around Rp. 3,296 billion for 2% productivity to Rp. 14,832 billion for 9% productivity. The percentage of GRDP until the third quarter of 2024 is 0.006% (2%)-0.030% (9%)
